“Funny, gently
satiric, at times almost poignant… Myatt, an up-and-coming young playwright,
excels at acute, unexpected punch lines. She lightly blends in multimedia
elements and deftly plants seeds that pay off in later scenes.”
Robert Hurwitt, San Francisco Chronicle
“An intriguing serio-comedy
about the stultifying sexual morality and gender roles in place around the time
Alfred Kinsey released his roof-rattling academic studies… This play is a rare
intelligent new one with direct appeal to older audiences, suggesting a possible
shelf life amongst regional companies.”
Dennis Harvey, Variety
“Julie Marie Myatt…teases
and cajoles us with an intelligent, intriguing and funny play that manages to
ask questions without knocking us over the head with them.… Myatt’s humor freely
runs the spectrum from adolescent to coy to poignant, and Myatt strikes a nice
balance in treating the material with a mix of matter-of-factness and awe.”
Dominic Papatola, Saint Paul
Pioneer Press
“An engaging new play
built on a sturdy foundation of irony… Julie Marie Myatt is a playwright whose
work bears noticing. Based on THE SEX HABITS OF AMERICAN WOMEN, her plays could
prove to be habit forming.”
Chad Jones, Oakland Tribune
